3x^2+4y^2-18x-8y-17=0

3 x^{2} + 4 y^{2} - 18 x - 8 y - 17 = 0

(h, k) = (3, 1), a = 4, b = 23

Solution steps

3 x^{2} + 4 y^{2} - 18 x - 8 y - 17 = 0

Rewrite

3 x^{2} + 4 y^{2} - 18 x - 8 y - 17 = 0

in the form of the standard ellipse equation

\frac{( x - 3 ) ^{2}}{4 ^{2}} + \frac{( y - 1 ) ^{2}}{( 2 3 ) ^{2}} = 1

Therefore ellipse properties are:

(h, k) = (3, 1), a = 4, b = 23

a > b

therefore

a

is semi-major axis and

b

is semi-minor axis

Ellipse with center (h, k) = (3, 1), a = 4, b = 23
